I liked coming on here, mainly cos my grandson is on your books, however since the NUFC takeover happened it has become very silly on both sides. Daft comments trying to out do each other, like two bald men fighting for a comb.
Fact is both clubs have been hampered by their fair share of dishonourable non ambitious owners and another plain fact is every one on here would have snapped the hand of the investment NUFC are getting, the only factor is the background to who actually owns NUFC....... and yes KSA background is at the very best suspect and has been barbaric. That said they have to start somewhere and they have a plan in place to improve its image world-wide and if that includes sport then so be it, some say sports washing....... only time will tell if that is true, I believe its called Saudi Vision 2030!
Ok, I am jewish, if anyone should ever forget the events of the holocaust then they should hang their heads in shame, it should be on the curriculum of every school across the globe, so I must hate all Germans? Actually not at all, Germany grew after the WW2, it evolved to a better place with less oppressive leaders.
Can you compare this with KSA? I doubt it as its a different type of regime in place although in the past no less brutal, but if lets say in 30 years time when I am long gone the Saudi Vision 2030 proved to be the start of an evolvement in the improvement then of its image then it should be applauded. problem is we live in the now and not the future....so nobody actually knows.
Yes a bit of a waffle and a bit of rant and no doubt despite my grandson playing for your lot I will be classed a 'gravy stained dribbler' or something like that.....am I laughing at you being in third division, yeah I prob smiled same way you do when its 6 in a row etc.....you know what that is..... banter
Arguing about daft cups, fact is 49 years for you and lot longer for us.......... hotbed of football? championship and third tier trophies dont count, nor do Simod shoe cups or anything else daft like that...league cup, FA cup and first division title (old school)...and no your not having the Papa John thing either.
What I will say is I have only missed 18 home games at NUFC since 1970 and seen my fair share of Westwoods or in your case Cowies (Newcastle fans are better than Sunderland's is what he said - I bet that made him popular) and yet 52 years on I am still waiting for proper silverware........
RTG is possibly the best online fanzine because it allows forums like this, just a pity you cant weedle out the none sensible comments, I am too old to be bothered to argue.
Grow up lads and lasses whichever side of the divide your on.
